It's on: Trump slaps Fiorina as she surges to 4th Place.
The Washington Examiner ^ | August 10, 2015 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 08/11/2015 3:19:24 AM PDT by Din Maker

Turning his horns on another female critic, front-running GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump ripped surging Republican challenger Carly Fiorina, claiming she has "zero chance" of winning and is somebody who gives him "a massive headache."

In a tweet following Fiorina's latest hit on Trump's "offensive" comments about Fox debate host Megyn Kelly, Trump said:

"I just realized that if you listen to Carly Fiorina for more than ten minutes straight, you develop a massive headache. She has zero chance!"

Fiorina surged the most after the debate, jumping to fourth place in a new NBC News Online Poll conducted by SurveyMonkey.

He and his campaign often use the Twitter account @realDonaldTrump to slap critics with crude language. For example, after Red State convention host Erick Erickson withdrew his invitation to speak on Saturday in Atlanta, Trump tweeted:

"Small crowds at @RedState today in Atlanta. People were very angry at EWErickson, a major sleaze and buffoon who has saved me time and money"

I’m continually amazed that so many people expect to find deep thought and rational discussion on Twitter, and are then shocked when they don’t.

He should be spending his time brushing up on issues and how best to share his solutions with the voters.

You haven't read Trump's last book, have you?

Carly has been trash talking Trump for a month. It’s about time she got her smack down.

What is it with you people calling out Trump as thin-skinned? How long have you been here to know that Freepers were up in arms for years that Bush let every insult - big and small - pass unnoticed. It ate into his presidency like a real cancer. That was Rove’s policy and it destroyed Bush. Trump is going to fight big and small.

Yes, I have, but many haven’t. Those are the people he needs to reach.

Reading is hard. Is there a 5 second sound bite that summarizes it on youtube? /s

She should have kept her trap shut....Instead, she comes across as all the rest of the insiders.

Trump can do his smack down all he wants. I object to the name calling. We think we know these people because they come into our homes via tv. We don’t know them, just our perception by the way they talk or the things they say which sound good to our ears. We need to seriously vet our candidate.

Then it's up to you and me to call out all these jackasses that claim "he's not a conservative" or "where are the details."

How do you like the fact that Carly, big conservative, said she would have voted for Sonia Sotomayor for the supreme court? Conservative leader my ass.

OMG.... Are you freakin' kidding me? If you can provide me a source, I will see to it that it goes viral on Twitter. Twitter is a powerful tool for grass roots folks to have a large platform. Get me a link to a source; PLEASE.

Can I go out on a limb here and say that Trump may be serving a purpose, whether he knows it or not? In that he's taking the majority of the heat while Cruz and other more "statesmanly" (I know) contenders get their messages out in the wake of all that drama?
Kindof like the old saying that if you're talkin about me you're leaving someone else be?
Prolly a bit optimistic. d:^)

Carly knows she'll get some headlines and praise from the liberal MSM and GOPe.

Pandering is so not cool, shows weakness.

Yep, she has been showing her “ugly” side, but she does it in a classy way; so, people give her a “pass”. Donald would be zooming in the polls if he was a little more diplomatic. If you get mad at your neighbor you don’t tell the entire neighborhood that you can smell her c*** all the way from next door. But, Donald would (and does), and it’s starting to wear thin with a lot of people. They’re saying; o.k., enough already. It’s like Chris Christie’s big-mouth, in-your-face personna was o.k. at first, but, it wore thin and after awhile it became “too much” and turned people off.

But along with that - he is sucking up all the air in the room, while the other candidates aren’t getting much coverage. I guess that’s part of his plan. There aren’t that many I want to hear from anyway. Donald’s ego would never allow him to be a stalking horse. There is a lot on the internet about him and his inflated ego and outrageous claims and bragging.

Not according to the polls.

What is that old adage, Those who live in glass houses should throw stones. Something like that. Those who smack shouldn’t cry when they get smacked back.
